Delay in Spring Program Launch
Dear Members,
Step 3 of Alberta’s reopening announcement is not what we hoped for, instead, restrictions on indoor gathering and limitations on group fitness remain in effect. As a result, CLSA will postpone the start of spring programming which was scheduled for April 12.
Although we are sad to deliver this news, as we know many of our members have been looking forward to spring classes and circles, the return to a more familiar routine is not far off! We are hopeful that the rollout of vaccines will put us all in a safer and healthier position to offer classes for the second term of the Spring season in June.
A revised program guide reflecting revisions for Spring Terms 2 & 3 will be available on our website soon, and we will send you the notice via email at that time.
Please check our website at CentralLions.org, watch your email, or call us 780–496–7369 to learn of any updates. Our staff continues to work remotely, but please call us if you have any questions or email us at info@CentralLions.org.
We acknowledge this is a bit frustrating and are grateful that you continue to support the Association by remaining flexible and understanding during this time of uncertainty and change. Brighter days are coming!
Lastly, a reminder to mark your calendars May 10 for the Town Hall and May 20 for the AGM. More details will be provided closer to these dates.
